BLUES N'AT

     Take cover, blues fans. There's going to be a showdown at Moondog's in Blawnox tomorrow night. A Guitar Showdown, that is. Jimmy Adler, Vince Agwada and Craig King will brandish their axes with some of the hottest licks this side of the Mississippi to aid Project Bundle Up. That's right, boys and girls. Three of Pittsburgh's best guitar-slingers are in action for your listening pleasure as they help raise money and awareness for a program that has been assisting needy children and seniors in the Pittsburgh area for almost 30 years.


      All three guitarists have been featured on the BSWPA's Blues from the 'Burgh CDs and are well-known to blues-fans all over the tri-state region and beyond. Jimmy Adler represented the BSWPA at the 2013 International Blues Challenge in Memphis. He has lit up stages from across the country and Europe with his super-charged fretwork, as well as bringing down the house at many Pittsburgh area gigs.


      Vince Agwada brings his high-powered blues to Pittsburgh by way of sweet home Chicago. After tearing up the scene in the Windy City for over 25 years, Vince decided to grace us with his hard-charging guitar style, blowing Pittsburgh audiences away every time he steps on the stage.


     Craig King is no stranger to Pittsburgh blues-lovers. He's been firing up blues fans for years with his fiery fretwork. Whether he's out front, leading his band or he's helping out other fellow musicians with a gig, Craig King amazes everyone with his astonishing guitar skills.


     Adler plus Agwada plus King equals out to three great guitarists and one fantastic, fun-filled evening of blues. And it's all for your listening pleasure tomorrow night at Moondog's. The doors open at 7 and the Showdown starts at 8. Come enjoy an evening of guitar-slinging blues and help support Project Bundle-Up, too. Until next time boys and girls. Keep It Bluesy!
